Its role Technology licensor
Harper International Corporation is an engineering and manufacturing company focused on thermal processing solutions for the chemical and materials industries. The firm develops and supplies high-temperature furnace systems designed for processes such as graphitization, carbonization, and sintering of advanced materials.
Its products include continuous and batch furnaces that operate at extreme temperatures, enabling the production of synthetic graphite used in lithium-ion battery anodes, as well as other applications in aerospace, energy, and industrial sectors. The technology emphasizes energy efficiency and scalability for commercial production.
Based in the United States, Harper International serves clients globally through equipment sales and technology licensing. In January 2025, it entered into an agreement with Novonix to provide exclusive rights to its continuous induction-based graphitization furnace technology for use in a synthetic graphite plant in Chattanooga, Tennessee.
This licensing arrangement highlights the company's role in supporting the development of North American battery material supply chains. Harper International maintains a position as a specialist provider of proprietary thermal equipment rather than a large-scale materials producer itself.
